Here's a few archaic words that need to be revived:
brabble: (verb) to quarrel about trifles; esp. to quarrel noisily, brawl, squabble about minutia (can also be used as a noun, as in: "Enough of this useless grabble!")
cozen: to swindle by artful deception
maunder: to grumble; to drivel; to mutter
ruth: pity; remorse; sorrow (as "full of ruth," the opposite of "ruthless," I guess...)
tentiginous: lust-provoking
throttlebottom: harmless incompetent who holds public office
toft: a small hill
tosticated: fuddled; perplexed
trig: stone placed under a wheel to keep it from rolling
